Ah right, that explains a lot. Thanks for that Kev.

Martin.
From what I gather all the Maersk RJ’s were bought as part of a management buy out to form the new airline Duo Airways. Maersk have been a BA franchisee for ten years. As part of the deal BA are letting Duo have so many routes and they will no loger operate as a franchisee.

Love the winglets on the 738!
I hate the 737 design now because it just looks so dated, but add winglets and I really do think it makes them look ‘sexy’ – if thats possible.
I just wish all NGs had winglets, then I’d have a better chance at distinguishing between NGs and 3/4/5 srs.

Kev,
I saw that Maersk/Duo CRJ200 at Munich yesterday and was wondering about the livery. Are they ending their franchise with BA?

KLM F100. The starboard side of this a/c was filthy so I wanted to get a shot of it but alas only the port side, which for some reason was clean, made itself available.

Just a few more.
Islandsflug 737 again.

Nice pics again Kevin, you obviously had some of that sunshine Luke was on about in another thread.
By: BDPversion1 - 3rd August 2003 at 23:34
Nice pictures Kev. Its a shame about Maersk Air, their blue livery was one that always stuck out from the crowd, now they just have that dirty looking c/s.

Nice collection pf pics kev… as usual.
Loving the pic of the Uzbeck 767 and the Eurocypria 737… though comet wont be impressed with this pic! :p
Cheers Kev Great shots.
I went to a steam/country show about 1.1/2 miles from LGW, getting a good look a take off and latter on in the day landings to. I forgot the camera though! 😡
Though I did have the binnos with me and managed to get me self 4 new numbers. G-VROS/G-CCMY/G-EZYR/TF-ATC.
And also see my first ever LH 747 and KLM 747… both at 30 something 1000 ft!

Hey Kev, missed you by a day.
I was there yesterday for the DUO, the titles are really bad, you can’t see it from a fair distance, should stand out more.
Like the shots, the Eurocypria colours are great and love the 737’s with winglets!
By: kev35 - 3rd August 2003 at 22:55
An interesting version of the Maersk livery. Thought they’d become Duo?
By: kev35 - 3rd August 2003 at 22:53
Crap photo but just look at those winglets!
